OFFICIAL HOME OPENER THREAD: NO.1 CLEMSON vs. The Citadel

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 14:25:54


The following players on Clemson’s 120-man roster who are not expected to be available for today’s game include: DT Tyler Davis, DE Justin Foster, CB Mario Goodrich, WR Hamp Greene, S Jake Herbstreit, WR Tye Herbstreit, DT Ruke Orhorhoro, TE Luke Price, DE Klayton Randolph, WR Justyn Ross, WR Brannon Spector, QB James Talton, DE Xavier Thomas, OL Mason Trotter and CB LeAnthony Williams.

Too bad Brannon Spector's out! I was looking forward to seeing him again today after last week. CB LeAnthony Williams also out, and DE Justin Foster and CB Mario Goodrich are out for the second straight week. 

Bryan Bressee will make his first career start today, and Sheridan Jones will get the start at corner with Mario Goodrich out.




1-2-3-4! 1-2-3-4!

STILL The Most Exciting 25 Seconds in College Football! Dabo was as excited as I've ever seen him after running down The Hill, jumping and yelling at midfield!

Captains today are Nolan Turner, Regan Upshaw, Darien Rencher and Will Swinney. Tigers win the toss and take the ball first.

Onside kick! It was too early though. Lol they will have to re-kick. Gutsy move but a little overanxious.

Long run by Travis on the second play!

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 15:18:46


Ugh Amari with another drop. He dropped the 40-yard TD last week.

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 15:19:04


Long completion to Powell!

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 15:19:53


TD LADSON!!! His 1st of the season! Pretty good coverage by the DB, but better pass and catch.

TIGERS LEAD 7-0 IN 1ST.

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 15:20:55


Woody Dantzler and Anthony Simmons are the honorary captains for today and got a nice applause. They were on camera from their homes.

D forces a 3 and out!

TD AMARI RODGERS!!! Beautiful 44-yard pass from Trevor to the back of the end zone, and Amari didn't drop this one! His first TD of the season.

TIGERS LEAD 14-0 IN 1ST.

D forces another punt! Baylon Spector came out of the game with what looks like a possible concussion.

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 15:37:21


16-yard completion to Ladson and a 22-yard run by Travis sets the Tigers up inside the 5-yard line! Give it to ETN for the all-time record, most career games with a TD!

Reply
CUTrevor 2020-09-19 15:37:55


Wow ETN stoned twice in a row. 3rd and goal. They'll probably let Trevor walk it in like he did twice last week.

Reply
CUTrevor 2020-09-19 15:38:26


TD TREVOR!!! He goes right up the middle for his 3rd rushing TD of the season!

TIGERS LEAD 21-0 IN 1ST.

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 15:40:07


FUMBLE!!! Myles Murphy forced it, and Skalski returned it for the Tigers' 1st defensive TD of the season! Play is under review.

Reply
CUTrevor 2020-09-19 15:46:05


Play stands!

TIGERS LEAD 28-0 IN 1ST.

Myles Murphy robbed of a TFL for a late delay of game call.

Reply
CUTrevor 2020-09-19 15:48:30


That's the end of the quarter! Bulldogs will have 3rd and 15 from their own 11 to start the 2nd.

TIGERS LEAD 28-0 AFTER ONE.

TFL BRESEE!!! D gets another 3 and out.

Reply
CUTrevor 2020-09-19 16:05:01


ETN returns the punt 44 yards all the way to the 6 yard line! Give the ball back to him for the all-time games with a TD record!

Ugh they took Travis out! DJ in at QB.

Reply
CUTrevor 2020-09-19 16:06:58

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 16:09:46


TD LADSON!!! His 2nd of the game on another dime from Trev for 54 yards! What a pass! Too bad Trev didn't have this kind of game against Lsu last season. He is on the money! Trev is 8-9 for 168 yards and 3 touchdowns and another TD on the ground.

TIGERS LEAD 42-0 IN 2ND.

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 16:10:58


D forces another 3 and out thanks to a sack by freshman Trenton Simpson for a 9-yard loss!

Reply
CUTrevor 2020-09-19 16:12:45


DJ back in at QB. Apparently Trev is done for the day with only 9 passes. Lol 8-9 for 168 yards and 4 total TD's. Now that's what they call efficiency!

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 16:13:03


DJ goes deep to Ajou and gets a PI call.

DJ to Will Brown to convert on 3rd an 5!

Dixon runs to the 6. It's 3rd and 2.

Reply
CUTrevor 2020-09-19 16:16:59


TD DJ!!! He runs it up the middle just like before for his 2nd rush TD! Tigers have 5 rush TD's by the quarterbacks in the last 2 games.

TIGERS LEAD 49-0 IN 2ND.

D gave up a couple first downs but force another punt! The Citadel has just three 1st downs in the game.

Taisun Phommachanh makes his first appearance at QB today.

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 16:35:02


Bad snap by looked like Vinson at center. That ends the half!

TIGERS LEAD 49-0 AT THE HALF.

Reply
CUTrevor 2020-09-19 17:04:05


Tigers lined up between quarters in a show of unity with Dabo imploring the same from the crowd.

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 17:06:19


Tigers gave up a 1st down but force another punt. Andrew Booth got burned again deep, but the receiver was unable to make the catch. Thornton had a nice hit near the sideline.

DJ still in at QB.

Vinson with another bad snap. They brought in Rayburn, who was said to get the majority of snaps at 2nd team center.

Ugh DJ stuffed on 4th and 2. Tigers turn it over on downs.

Another 3 and out for the D! Kendrick was finally in at corner just now. He missed last week and only played special teams today up until now.

Taisun back in at QB.

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 17:17:41


Ugh nice first down run by Dukes, but he coughed the ball up. Citadel takes over at CU 43.

D gets a 3 and out! Good sudden change defense.

Ooh Taisun had EJ wide open for a long TD down the sideline, but he didn't see him. Tigers punt it away.

Another 3 and out for the D! Tyler Venables almost came up with an INT, but he landed out of bounds.

Drew Swinney makes a catch!

Bowman runs for 4 yards to end the quarter. It will be 3rd and 3 at the Citadel 34 to start the 4th.

TIGERS LEAD 49-0 HEADED TO THE 4TH.

DJ completes a screen to Pace, but he's drilled short of the line to make. Tigers turn it over on downs for the second time today.

Ugh longest play of the day for The Citadel comes on a trick pass to the Clemson 30. Bulldogs had just 59 total yards before that!

CUTrevor 2020-09-19 17:40:17


D gets another stop, and the field goal is no good! Shutout in tact! Tigers take over at their 30.

Reply
CUTrevor 2020-09-19 17:43:33


Ugh nice throw deep down the middle of the field by Taisun, but TE Sage Ennis drops it. Dabo was just singing his praises the other day too!

Tigers go 3 and out.
